Mrs Williams, the wife of a local farmer, described the cat ‘as just
something out of the jungle. It was black all over with short legs but
very strong’. More details were not available , as the creature moved
too fast and Mrs Williams only managed to catch a glimpse of it. The
incident occurred when Mrs Williams was taking her dog for a walk .
Suddenly something hit her very hard on the back of the head ,
causing her to fall to the ground, stunned.
‘When I came to, there it was- huge, black cat staring down at me with
its glittering eyes. I got the fright of my life, I can tell you’, said Mrs
Williams.‘It was a terrifying experience’, she told the reporters, still
visibly shaken. ‘ If it hadn’t been for my Labrador , who chased the
monster away , it would have killed me. It was about six foot long, the
size of a large Alsacian.’ Mrs Williams’ description matches that of
other eye witnesses in incidents involving strange creatures in various
parts of the country.
Exmoor police have been trying to track the ‘Beast of Bodmin”’, as it’s
called , since it was first spotted some years ago, but they have so far
come up with nothing except for a few very large animal tracks and a
trail of dead sheep. Claims the creature was sighted in a school
playground recently are being investigated.
